This 12 months, like final 12 months, my aim is to take some snapshots of my feminine mates with their kids. I LOVE seeing mothers in pictures, and it’s enjoyable to attempt to seize candy, unposed moments. I’ve informed my pal Claire that I’d prefer to be her private Pete Souza.
I lastly watched Ali Wong’s new comedy particular, Single Woman, on relationship after divorce, and omg I laughed 1000 occasions. “I’ve by no means been pursued this a lot in my life,” she stated. “Boys, they by no means preferred me rising up. Within the ’90s, in highschool, guys, they weren’t into charismatic A cups.” These days she solely dates divorced dads as a result of “I need a man that’s been pre-yelled at.” So good.
My boys eat SO MUCH today — a gallon of milk lasts only some days — so yesterday we made Ghirardelli boxed brownies as a snack. I’d forgotten how wealthy, chewy, and scrumptious they’re. Undoubtedly the most effective boxed brownies in the marketplace. (Agree/disagree?)
As regards to readers’ winter outfits, Boston-based Sumaya despatched in a submission right this moment: “I wait all 12 months to put on my conventional velvet Kashmiri pheran. They was once thought of fairly old style, however now they’re well-liked with Kashmiris dwelling out and in of Kashmir, and that makes me so comfortable. They’re meant to be layered, so I pair mine with attire, denims, coats, something. My son wears his with a hoodie and Uggs. They usually all have POCKETS!”
Personally, and far much less colorfully, I’ve been into carrying a lot of gentle browns. These pants get no less than three compliments each time I put on them — the match is admittedly nice, with a slight barrel leg and utility type — and I discover myself pulling them on a number of occasions every week. (Right here’s an analogous pair with extra sizing.)
